Largo Chiropractic Discussion of Vitamin B for Brain
Vitamin B promotes healthy blood, brain and body, the big 3 B’s for all of us [[targeltocation]] humans!
Not so long ago, vitamins sometimes were derided as to their importance. Vitamins are really needed dietary components for healthy life. (1) Hollstrom & Associates Inc gets the importance of vitamins to the health of our Largo chiropractic patients and their influence on our Largo chiropractic patients’ back pain and neck pain conditions. Hollstrom & Associates Inc offers many Largo chiropractic care choices to diagnose as well as resolve health concerns you bring to your Largo chiropractic appointment.
Health is often reliant upon proper vitamin levels as it is now recognized that a deficiency of them may affect not just bodily issues but also psychiatric disorders. A vitamin B deficiency may impact memory, dementia and cognitive function. Deficiencies of B1, B3, B6, B9 and B12 – all vital for neuronal function – are associated with depression. Depression is complex, and vitamin B contributes to its complexity. (1) Hollstrom & Associates Inc carefully listens to our patients for any sign of depression.
Another subset of patient to check B levels in are Largo diabetic patients. Patients with diabetes are often prescribed metformin. This drug may lower serum cyanocobalamin (B12) levels. Patient age, dosage, years of taking it, and time of the diabetes diagnosis likely play a role in the vitamin B12 level, as well. (2) Your Largo chiropractor understands diabetes well.
Vitamins play a preventive role of cancer, particularly in the initial stages of the cancer development. Folate (B9), vitamins B2, B6, and B12 are very important. Specifically, a low level of folate (B9) messes with dendritic cell function which impacts T helper cell differentiation. (T helper cells trigger the immune responses in the body.) (3) Metabolism of the B vitamins is important, providing compounds for DNA synthesis and repair processes. Researchers are excited about the potential vitamins like B present for the prevention of serious illnesses. (4)
Vitamin B12 itself is also really important. Vitamin B12 is crucial to cell function. It’s an essential micronutrient as humans cannot produce it. 15% of us Largo folks who are older than 65 don’t have enough vitamin B12. B12 deficiency results in blood and neurological issues. We may have a higher risk of coronary artery disease if our B12 levels are low.|Low B12 levels may also put us at risk for coronary artery disease. Vitamin B12 has to be obtained by eating animal proteins. Eaten vitamin B12 undergoes an intricate process of absorption and assimilation. (5) Hollstrom & Associates Inc encourages our Largo chiropractic patients to test their B12 levels. If they’re low, let’s together, Hollstrom & Associates Inc and you, make a plan to improve them.
Why? Lack of vitamin B12 causes a variety of neurological issues. Some are acute, subacute or chronic. Such neurological complications due to a vitamin B12 deficiency are subacute combined degeneration of the spinal cord, a useless hand syndrome (related to the cervical spinal cord), and acute posterolateral cord syndrome which results in gait ataxia. Not one of these issues is a welcome condition. Fortunately, B12 supplementation helped all these patients. (6) Trust Hollstrom & Associates Inc to lead you to the necessary care for any B12 deficiency discovered.
